Hold Them A Little Closer
I pray you never walk through The agony I've known I pray that all your little ones Will stay until they've grown. I pray that you can really hear My heartbroken cries So you will know the anguish When A Child Dies.
I pray it makes you hold them Closer to your breast And savor every moment As if it were the best. For none of us can ever know How soon they will be gone And we we'll have the memories To hold us in the dawn.
Oh dear and tired mother Of rambunctious little lambs Do not grow weary of washing And helping little hands. Remember that these precious ones May not be with us long And we will have to suffer Such pain when they are gone.
So when you cry at one more day Of toys spread on the floor Imagine if they weren't there To mess up anymore. Think of all those precious times You'll miss and wish you had You'll see those things that irked you so They weren't all that bad.
Hold them closer for awhile And stroke their silky hair And hug them gently once for me I wish that I were there. For as I cry out for my son Who cannot feel my touch My heart cries out to tell you all You can never love too much... |
